## Technical overview of tracker design
One or more socket workers open sockets, read and parse requests from peers and
send them through channels to request workers. The request workers go through
the requests, update shared internal tracker state as appropriate and generate
responses that are sent back to the socket workers. The responses are then
serialized and sent back to the peers.
This design means little waiting for locks on internal state occurs,
while network work can be efficiently distributed over multiple threads,
making use of SO_REUSEPORT setting.
## Installation prerequisites
- Install Rust with [rustup](https://rustup.rs/) (stable is recommended)

To fairly compare HTTP performance to opentracker, set keepalive to false in

## Trivia
The tracker is called aquatic because it thrives under a torrent of bits ;-)
